[QUOTE="ThxOne, post: 8788605, member: 675210"] I removed the Soundstream amp from the sub-box and added the second oversized L bracket to the enclosure and secured it to the body of the car. No front to back movement, no side to side movement. This box is secured at two points on the box and two points on the car. I moved on to adjusting the voltage meter on the Stinger Capacitor. I let the car warm up and the voltage at the battery was 14.3v at idle on flat ground and an air temp of 70°F. I adjusted the voltage on the Cap to 14.3v so it would read correctly. I then moved on to removing excess amplifier cables and set the gain on the sub-amp. I set all my EQ's flat. No bass enhancements. No delays. At full tilt on the head unit volume (40 out of 40) using a -10db 40hz tone I set the gain to 34.65v. This should be 1200w @ 1ohm on a sine wave. I think I used a -5db @ 40hz tone the last time and yes, I can feel the difference now. 😬 Monday I locate some carpet for the amplifier board and I begin mocking up the amp rack. [/QUOTE]
